    Trojan virus in the "Initial Setup used Tormach" thread?

    I tried opening the thread titled, "Initial setup of used Tormach", and my Kasperski Antivirus popped-up with a Trojan Downloader warning.
    None of the other threads seem infected.
    Be careful guys. What gives?

    Strange. That happens every now and then on this forum. There was a period last year* where the whole site was flagged by Google for being "unsafe" in some way. It eventually went away. I checked out the thread using my phone and there isn't anything there that pops out as potentially dangerous. There aren't any attached files or even photos.

    Hopefully it's a false alarm.

    Its due to the ads being run on the site. Someone is running an ad with malware on it.
